Promoting Growth, Passion, and Positivity.

On July 14th, The Positivity Brand hosted our first event. We work with our partners, Give Humanity and Sharmaine Brown, founder of Jared's Heart of Success non-profit organization. We raised $341 to host a paint party for some of the children she mentors and our instructor was the beautiful, Jasmyne Johnson. Check out the recap of this event.

Artist are creators, observers and believers. Often time we run into people in this life who gift you with a fresh outlook. This week we have a special artist who comes bearing gifts of knowledge and perspective. He penned this open letter to whomever needs it. He also just dropped an album at the beginning of this year. Stay tune for more from this author, artist and influencer. If you'd like to know more about SE7EN, check out The Positivity Brand's interview with him: here.

Today's Pinch of Positivity comes from the lessons I've learned during one of my favorite episodes of Netflix's Black Mirror. "San Junipero", is a modern-tech-focused Romeo and Juliet tale, with a twist. Two women fall in love inside a virtual afterlife and teach us the value of time and happiness. With all the odds against them physically on Earth, they create their own happiness together in the beautiful heavens of San Junipero!

"I AM WOMAN, I KNOW MY STUFF!"

This weeks #POP comes from one of the best Black Sitcoms of all time, The Cosby Show. Olivia lip syncs Koko Taylor's song, I Am Woman, for her grandparents anniversary. With Cliff Huxable as the guitarist, this has to be the cutest tribute to The Queen of Chicago Blues.

Imagine a world without mirrors

This Thursday's #POP comes from a children's book you might have read growing up, No Mirrors in Nana's House. A book written by Ysaye M. Barnell, but brought to life by Chris Raschka illustrations in this video!

2018 is the year of the new!

Each Thursday The Positivity Brand will share a Pinch of Positivity that will leave you smiling and empowered. This weeks Pinch of Positivity comes a show everyone knows and loves, Sesame Street. This video aired on October 4th and the inspiration behind it is worth sharing!

I was effortlessly minding my business and being motivated by some amazing Women Entrepreneurs for #WomensHistoryMonth when I stumbled upon the instagram of @OursbyBlackjoy. I fell in love with everything they represented from Black owned businesses to spreading Black Girl Magic.
